Michael Saylor Rejects Report of New Strategy Bitcoin Sale Approval

Key TakeawaysSaylor identified the reported $5 billion authorization as old news.The June framework permits bitcoin sales but requires none.Earlier sales funded preferred dividends and rebuilt cash reserves.　　Saylor Pushes Back on Viral Bitcoin Sale Claim　　Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor pushed back Aug. 1 on reports that Strategy Inc. (Nasdaq: MSTR) had newly authorized up to $5 billion in bitcoin sales. His response followed a widely circulated social media post that presented the companys existing capital-management framework as a fresh decision, prompting concern about potential selling pressure.　　Saylor characterized the claim as recycled information and explained that the authorization was announced June 29 as part of the companys Digital Credit Capital Framework. He reiterated that the program permits bitcoin sales for defined corporate purposes and that Strategy had announced no additional bitcoin sale authorization.　　Filing Shows How the Program Operates　　A July 6 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recorded 3,588 bitcoin sold for $216 million between June 29 and July 5, following Strategy‘s first bitcoin sale since 2022 of 32 BTC to help fund preferred-stock dividend payments. It later issued $263.5 million in common stock without purchasing additional bitcoin, opting instead to increase cash reserves and liquidity. Those actions reflected the

Crypto Hacks Drain $1.1B in First Half of 2026 Amid 212 Security Incidents

North Korea-linked attackers accounted for more than half of all stolen crypto funds in the first half of 2026.　　The first half of 2026 was the most active six months for crypto exploits on record.　　This is according to a new report from Blockaid, which shows hackers stole $1.1 billion across 212 incidents.　　Crypto Hacks Top $1.1B in H1 2026　　The Blockaid report found that four major incidents involving KelpDAO, Drift, Resolv, and CoW Swap made up roughly $707 million of the total losses.　　KelpDAO suffered the largest loss, after hackers stole $292 million worth of crypto by faking a cross-chain message that siphoned off the protocols Ethereum reserves. Drift Protocol, a perpetuals exchange built on the Solana chain, also suffered a similarly huge hit, as it was exploited for $285 million within 12 minutes.　　Blockaid linked both cases to TraderTraitor, a state-sponsored North Korean subset of the larger Lazarus Group. Humanity Protocols $32 million loss was also connected to the same attacker cluster, bringing DPRK-linked losses to $609 million, which is about 55% of all funds stolen during the period.　　The pace of attacks also increased through the year, with monthly incidents going from 18 in January to 57 in June. April proved to be the

Audiera jumps 17% as whales buy $25M BEAT – Next target is…

Audiera has continued its price recovery since it defended the $2.4 support level days ago. The altcoin extended the bullish streak, hitting a six-week high of $4.72.　　With this price hike, the altcoin effectively cleared all July losses. In fact, as of this writing, Audiera was trading around $4.63, marking a 17.32% jump on the daily charts.　　Over the same period, the market cap climbed 25% to $1.5 billion, indicating steady capital inflows.　　Audiera extends bullish streak amid whale accumulation spree　　Audiera [BEAT] has been on a strong bullish streak, driven by sustained accumulation by whales. Since reclaiming $4, whales have consistently jumped and defended higher price levels.　　On 30th July, Audiera whales purchased $25 million worth of BEAT according to NTSchain. The same demand continued, and on the 31st, whales withdrew over 2.4 million BEAT as OxInchain reported.　　As August started, this whale demand has remained steady. According to Nazoku, a newly created wallet withdrew 500k BEAT worth more than $2 million from Gate.　　Source: Debank　　Such a sustained period of whale accumulation suggests that high-net-worth investors are bullish and actively pushing Audiera higher.　　Furthermore, spot activity also echoes this whale accumulation spree. According to Coinglass data, Audiera Spot Netflow has remained negative for four consecutive days.　　Source: CoinGlass　　This

Monad Just Hit $831 Million TVL All-Time High After Phantom Ends Platform Support

Monad just posted a genuine all-time high in total value locked, the kind of number that usually gets celebrated across every crypto news outlet without much scrutiny.　　At almost the exact same time, one of the industry‘s most widely used wallets announced it’s dropping support for that same network entirely. I don‘t think that’s a coincidence worth glossing over, and I think understanding both sides is the only way to actually judge whether Monads momentum is real.　　The Numbers Behind Monads New $831 Million High　　Monads total value locked has reached a new all-time high of $831 million, according to a recent update from CertiK.　　I think the scale of this jump deserves context. Just weeks earlier, Monad‘s TVL was being reported around $477 million, and before that, around $800 million with roughly $3,000 a day in fee revenue. Crossing $831 million now represents a genuinely fast climb, even by the standards of a chain that’s spent most of this year growing quickly.　　The data behind that headline number breaks down across two distinct categories, and I think both are worth understanding separately, because they tell somewhat different stories about where the growth is actually coming from.　　Lending Protocols Are Driving The Surge　　Over the past month,

Strategy Holds STRC Dividend at 12% as Stock Stays Below Par

Key TakeawaysStrategy held STRCs dividend rate at 12% for August 2026, its highest rate since the July 2025 launch.STRC closed at $89.46 on July 31, about 10-11% below its $100 par value.Experts have warned the ratchet mechanism creates “a structure with a finite number of cycles.”　　A Rate That Keeps Climbing but Cant Reverse　　Strategy (Nasdaq: MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor confirmed on August 1 that the Stretch Dividend Rate for STRC, the companys Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock, will hold at 12.00% for August 2026. STRC launched in July 2025 at a 9% rate and has climbed through seven consecutive monthly increases since, reaching 12% for record dates beginning July 1, 2026.　　Image source: X　　The increases follow a ratchet mechanism, i.e. the dividend rises 0.5% whenever STRC trades below $95, and once triggered, an increase cannot be reversed even if the price recovers. Strategy resets the rate monthly to push STRCs price back toward its $100 par value and strip out volatility, a mechanism the company depends on to issue new STRC shares through its at-the-market (ATM) program and raise fresh capital for bitcoin purchases.　　STRC is one of several preferred stock instruments, alongside STRK, STRF and STRD, that Strategy has

Bitcoin cold-wallet attack spreads to 4,500 addresses as losses near $89 million

The attacker working through Coldcard-generated keys is now emptying wallets worth a few thousand dollars each.　　Galaxy Research flagged a third wave of sweeps early Sunday, roughly 208 bitcoin drained from 1,912 addresses between Friday midday and Saturday morning UTC.　　That is just over a tenth of a bitcoin per victim. The July 30 opening wave averaged close to a full coin, 1,083 bitcoin from 1,196 addresses in 41 minutes.　　Observed losses across all three waves now total 1,367 bitcoin, nearly $89 million, from 4,585 addresses.　　Wave three sends each victims coins to its own destination rather than the handful of shared collector addresses that made the first two easy to map, and parks them in pay-to-witness-script-hash outputs, a format that can carry multisignature or timelock conditions, instead of the plain single-key outputs used before.　　It batched an average of six victims into each sweep where wave one took exactly one at a time, and it scanned only the default derivation path, the standard branch of the key tree a wallet checks first, instead of testing several branches per seed.

Strategy to increase Bitcoin sales to $5B – Will the 4X selling pressure affect BTC？

The world‘s largest Bitcoin treasury firm, Strategy, plans to increase its Bitcoin sales fourfold to $5B. During its earnings report call on Thursday, Strategy’s President and CEO Phong Le reiterated that,　　Our intent is to sell Bitcoin for three reasons when we think its appropriate for the company.　　First, theyll increase their U.S dollar reserve by up to $1.25B to bring the total cash buffer to $5B or about 3 years of coverage.　　This is the coverage target initially recommended by JPMorgan analysts. But the bank urged use of MSTR sales, not BTC.　　Source: Yahoo　　Secondly, it will fund annual dividend payments, linked to Stretch [STRC] and other preferred stocks. For this, Strategy is eyeing $1.76B funding from BTC sales. Finally, Phong Le said theyll use an extra $2B to drive the repurchase programs of its stocks.　　Collectively, this brings the planned crypto sales to $5.01B-A 4X increase from its initial Bitcoin monetization program set at $1.25B earlier in July.　　Will Strategy‘s sales affect BTC’s price？　　Worth noting, the firm had previously sold $216M to fund dividend obligations. At that time, the market was pricing only the $1.25B sales program. In fact, Grayscale said that the plan would “restore confidence” in Strategys financing structure and help BTC form

Tethers Reserve Buffer Cut In Half As Undisclosed Comprehensive Loss Exceeds $4 Billion

The latest reserve attestation from Tether, the issuer of the worlds dominant stablecoin, reveals a shrinking financial cushion at a time when lawmakers in Washington debate the contours of stablecoin regulation. Excess reserves that stood at a record $8.23 billion at the end of March collapsed to $4.11 billion by June 30, a 50% drop detailed in a disclosure first reported by WuBlockchain. The halving of this buffer removes a layer of protection that many traders and protocols count on.　　Tethers income statement appears healthy on the surface. The company booked $1.5 billion in net operating profit for the second quarter. But the comprehensive financial result for the first six months — a metric that folds in unrealized gains and losses — landed at negative $3.17 billion. Paired with the previously reported Q1 net profit of about $1.04 billion, the arithmetic points to a comprehensive quarterly loss that comfortably exceeded $4 billion. Tether offered no breakdown of what drove the swing beyond the existence of unrealized losses, leaving the composition of those paper losses opaque.　　Collateral Mix Under the Microscope　　The sharp drop in excess reserves puts the quality and liquidity of Tether‘s backing assets back into focus. While the firm has gradually

Crypto Wallet Security: Lessons from Coldcard Seed Flaw

Changpeng Zhao says even the most trusted names in hardware storage cant guarantee full protection, and a newly discovered Coldcard flaw is proving his point. “Nothing is 100%,” the Binance founder wrote on X on August 1, urging crypto holders to stop relying on a single device or seed phrase. His warning followed a Bitcoin theft that exploited predictable key generation inside some Coldcard wallets, a case that has reopened a hard conversation about crypto wallet securityand whether offline storage alone is enough to keep funds safe.　　The incident didnt involve stolen devices, phishing links, or careless owners handing over recovery phrases. Instead, it traced back to a flaw buried in firmware that generated wallet seeds using predictable data instead of true randomness. That distinction matters: the failure happened at the moment a wallet was created, long before any transaction was ever signed.　　Key takeawaysChangpeng Zhao said no crypto wallet is fully safe after a Coldcard seed flaw was exposed, urging users to split funds across multiple wallets.A firmware bug caused some Coldcard devices to generate predictable seeds instead of using true hardware randomness.Attackers stole roughly 594 BTC from about 500 wallets in a 25-minute window; Across 1,196 addresses, Galaxy Research subsequently

Strives Joe Burnett points to institutional custody after Coldcard exploit

The Vice President of Bitcoin Strategy at Strive, Joe Burnett, described the past week as “possibly one of the worst weeks in the history of Bitcoin.” 　　The statement suggested that large holders ought to trust institutional custodians more than hardware wallets.　　Why did Strive‘s VP of strategy call out the worst week in Bitcoin’s history？　　A firmware exploit led to the loss of ~1,082 BTC, worth about $70 million, from Coldcard hardware wallets.　　The theft caused Burnett to warn large holders about hardware wallets, encouraging institutional custodians instead. The thief pounced on weak seed randomness before carting away users funds.　　The flaw was found in version 4.0.0. Coinkite shipped that version from a code commit on March 1, 2021, and patched it in version 4.21. Coinkite is the company behind Coldcard.　　The price of Bitcoin stayed more or less the same, hovering around $63,000 through the weekend. Although Santiment recorded the most negative Bitcoin social sentiment ever, a reaction that could be traced to the horror of watched-over keys failing.　　Why Burnett says the setup was more critical than the mistake　　What caused Burnett to be uneasy wasnt carelessness per se. According to Burnett, victims of the attack purchased a genuine device, generating their seed offline and
